Setting Up Segment Definitions

Access the Segment Definition Revisions form.

Segment ID

Enter a code from UDC 48S/SI to identify the segment.

Burden Category

Enter a code from UDC 48S/BC to identify a type of burden (for example, fringe, overhead, and so on).

Burden Source

Enter a code to specify the source of the pool grouping code. The pool grouping code can be derived from category code 12 from either the home business of the employee or from the project.

The system uses the burden source associated with the burden category to retrieve the pool ID from the Pool Grouping Codes table (F48S84). Values are:

1 (Employee): The system retrieves the pool grouping code for labor transactions from the Employee Pool Grouping Code field (EPGC).

2 (Project): The system retrieves the pool grouping code for the transaction from the Job Pool Grouping Code field (JPGC).

Seq No (sequence number)

Enter a number to specify the sequence of the burden category in burdening calculations. If you leave this field blank, the system increments the sequence number from the previous line.

Note: The system supplies the sequence only when you are adding segment definitions, not when you revise segment definitions.

FCCM (Facilities Capital Cost of Money)

Specify whether a burden category represents a Facilities Capital Cost Of Money (FCCM) cost. FCCM is generally defined as the new book value of property, plant and equipment, and certain intangible assets used in the operation of a business, but does not include working capital. Values are:

Y or 1: The burden category is an FCCM cost.

N or 0: The burden category is not an FCCM cost.
